Study Notes
Developmental Barriers
Language Barriers
- Difficulty understanding or using verbal or nonverbal language
- May be due to:
- Hearing or speech impairments
- Neurological disorders (e.g. aphasia)
- Cultural or linguistic differences
- Developmental delays (e.g. autism)
Impacts:
- Difficulty communicating needs and wants
- Social and emotional difficulties
- Delays in academic and cognitive development
Cognitive Delays
- Delays in processing, understanding, and using information
- May be due to:
- Genetic conditions (e.g. Down syndrome)
- Neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g. ADHD)
- Brain injury or infection
- Environmental factors (e.g. malnutrition)
Impacts:
- Delays in academic achievement
- Difficulty with problem-solving and critical thinking
- Increased risk of learning disabilities
Emotional Difficulties
- Difficulty regulating emotions and behaviors
- May be due to:
- Genetic predisposition
- Environmental factors (e.g. trauma, neglect)
- Neurodevelopmental disorders (e.g. anxiety disorder)
Impacts:
- Difficulty forming and maintaining relationships
- Increased risk of mental health disorders
- Impaired social and emotional development
Sensory Impairments
- Difficulty perceiving or processing sensory information
- May be due to:
- Hearing or vision impairments
- Neurological disorders (e.g. autism)
- Environmental factors (e.g. exposure to toxins)
Impacts:
- Difficulty with communication and social interaction
- Delays in cognitive and motor development
- Increased risk of anxiety and stress
Developmental Barriers
Language Barriers
- Difficulty understanding or using verbal/nonverbal language due to hearing/speech impairments, neurological disorders, cultural/linguistic differences, or developmental delays.
- Impact on communication: struggles to express needs and wants, leading to social and emotional difficulties.
- Impact on development: delays in academic and cognitive development.
Cognitive Delays
- Delays in processing, understanding, and using information due to genetic conditions, neurodevelopmental disorders, brain injury/infection, or environmental factors.
- Impact on learning: delays in academic achievement, difficulty with problem-solving and critical thinking, and increased risk of learning disabilities.
Emotional Difficulties
- Difficulty regulating emotions and behaviors due to genetic predisposition, environmental factors, or neurodevelopmental disorders.
- Impact on relationships: struggles to form and maintain relationships, increased risk of mental health disorders, and impaired social and emotional development.
Sensory Impairments
- Difficulty perceiving or processing sensory information due to hearing/vision impairments, neurological disorders, or environmental factors.
- Impact on development: struggles with communication and social interaction, delays in cognitive and motor development, and increased risk of anxiety and stress.
